It appears that you might not have start script in your react package.json file or maybe you happen to rename the server.js file with something else.
By default If there is a server.js file in the root of your package, then npm will default the start command to node server.js.
Possible ways to tackle this can be either any one of them -
- Rename the server script file to server.js.
- Add this piece of code in package.json
"scripts": { "start": "node your-script.js" }
Also what you can try is to run this directly-
node script-file-name.js
